Native Son
West Coast IPA.
A big, dank, double IPA, sitting in the 8-9% ABV bracket, in our Amplified range - filling a gap that has been sitting empty since Hardcore IPA departed. A new beer developed by our Head of Production Jason Pond; the first brew he came up with since joining became an instant hit.

This beer is very hop centric. Use the youngest hops that are available and store them in a freezer. This will help slow the degradation of desirable hop compounds.
